Denatured Canola Cooking Oil
This is refined canola oil (derived from rapeseed) that has been denatured by adding a substance like methyl alcohol to render it unfit for human consumption, primarily used in industrial applications such as biodiesel production or as a lubricant base. It falls under HTS 1514.99.50.10 because it is denatured rape/colza oil and its fractions, not chemically modified beyond denaturation. Chapter note to heading 1518 confirms denatured oils remain classified under their undenatured headings.
Industrial Denatured Rapeseed Lubricant Base Oil
Denatured rapeseed oil fraction used as a base for metalworking lubricants, denatured to prevent use as food and ensure safety in manufacturing. Classified under HTS 1514.99.50.10 as denatured rape/colza oil fractions, distinct from chemically modified oils. Denaturation aligns with chapter notes excluding merely denatured oils from heading 1518.
Denatured Colza Oil for Biodiesel Feedstock
Refined colza oil fraction denatured for use as biodiesel production feedstock, preventing diversion to food markets. HTS 1514.99.50.10 applies to denatured fractions of rape/colza oil, not chemically modified. This ensures separation from edible oils per tariff structure.
